Quick Tips for Staying Safe on Your Motorcycle

Wayne O’Bryan has served as a lawyer for a lot of motorcycle wrecks and he has seen some bad ones. One client was riding his bike through a tunnel when a tractor-trailer moved into his lane and caused a horrible accident. We got a fair settlement for that poor man who was injured through somebody else’s fault.

Riding a motorcycle can be a lot of fun, but it can also be dangerous. Motorcycles represent 2.5% of all registered vehicles but 11.3% of traffic deaths. In 2006, motorcycles accounted for over 4,800 fatalities and 88,000 injuries in the United States. In Virginia, there were 2,601 motorcycle crashes that resulted in 126 motorcycle operator deaths and 2,284 occupant injuries in 2007.
Follow these safety tips in order to have a safe ride.

Wear a DOT, ANSI, OR Snell-approved helmet that is designed with a hard outer shell and a retention system to protect the head and the brain in a variety of impacts. In 2006, 41% of those killed in crashes were not wearing a helmet.

If your helmet is not equipped with a face shield, wear goggles or glasses with plastic lenses to protect your eyes against insects, wind, dirt, rocks, or other airborne matter.
